Abstract
For academic undergraduate sport management programs to thrive at the university level an understanding of curriculum issues should be fostered. Using content analysis, the purposes of the current study were to identify current demographics analysis and curricular trends of undergraduate sport management programs over the past 13 years in the United States. Logistic analysis identified areas such as department affiliation or school size that could be predictive of undergraduate sport management courses in the United States. The results will help faculty in the United States and internationally to evaluate their programs to reflect the rapid changes in the sport industry.
